    Areas affected...eastern New York...much of Vermont...and western Massachusetts.

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch likely=20

    Valid 231601Z - 231730Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...80 percent

    SUMMARY...A tornado watch is likely by early afternoon.

    DISCUSSION...A mid-level jet streak can be seen on water vapor
    crossing southern Ontario late this morning. As this spreads east
    through the afternoon, expect thunderstorm development along a
    pre-frontal trough, which is currently crossing Lake Ontario. A very
    moist airmass is present across eastern New York with upper 60s to
    low 70s dewpoints. In addition, some heating has occurred between
    broken cloudcover with temperatures now in the upper 70s to low 80s.
    Some additional heating, combined with cooling temperatures aloft,
    should combine to increase MLCAPE from around 500 J/kg as of 15Z to
    around 1200-1500 J/kg by 17-18Z. This instability combined with a
    favorable supercell wind profile (45-50 knots of 0-6km shear per TYX
    VWP) should result in severe storms by early to mid afternoon. Some
    hail is possible given supercell storm mode, but the warm lower
    troposphere (14kft freezing temps) may limit the hail threat
    somewhat. The greater threat is expected to be damaging wind gusts
    and a few tornadoes. Veered surface flow is the primary mitigating
    factor to a greater/more intense tornado threat given the supercell
    storm mode and 170 m2/s2 0-1 SRH (per TYX VWP). However, despite the
    somewhat veered surface flow, the low-level jet is expected to
    strengthen through the afternoon/evening which will support the
    threat.=20=20

    A tornado watch will likely be issued by 17Z.
